Global Leadership Adventures: volunteer in South Africa, Brazil or Costa Rica [paid post]

With my friend planning to go off to college in Australia, it makes me even more aware of the opportunities for students, primarily high school students, to volunteer in other countries.

Volunteering abroad can even help give the high school student an edge in the competitive college applications process.

One option for volunteering for top students is to enroll with Global Leadership Adventures, which can help them to volunteer in South Africa, Brazil or Costa Rica. Such things can produce life-changing experiences for the students that while Global Leadership Adventures suggests students write about in their college essays to help set them apart from other students, I think more importantly would provide the students with a genuine understanding of how others in the world live and would give them potential changes in their values and world perception that will serve them well beyond their college years into their futures.

I envy my friend that is looking to finish her college life in Australia, it is something that will give her a lifetime of memories and let her develop as a person well beyond anything else she might experience. The same possibilities await student volunteers as they participate in programs that help them make a difference in the lives of others around the world.
